There are still NMPs: https://courses.teresco.org/metal/hdx/?load=al.nmp
One seems to be a FP, the other one needs to fixed.

* I'm a little confused about AL 304. Project information I've found suggests it's supposed to run between US 31 and I-65, but the reassurance shield photo F-1 posted upthread is east of I-65. How far east is it supposed to go?

I'm guessing 304 extends to Lindsey Lane, picking up the traffic exiting Buc-ee's. Since there's a single Limestone County Road 24 shield east of this intersection, I'm guessing it ends there, and not at I-65, since the ramps show east/west signage. Odd for ALDOT to have reassurance signage and then another shield with an End banner just 100 yards away from it. But they are pretty good about marking route ends, though not always exactly at its intersection.
There wasn't a sign for 304 at US 31 as of a few months ago, but it's still under construction.
Unfortunately, ALDOT milepost maps and the state highway map do not yet show 304, so I'd leave it off until there's something more official than a contract from a few years prior.

So, GSV was there in May/June '24.
Signage says CR only goes to the east of the intersection with Lindsay Ln.
And here's the infamous 'END' shield.
Interesting enough, it was only signed from the NB off-ramp. SB off-ramp had no AL-304 signage.
Oh, and I did also find this: https://whnt.com/news/huntsville/expect-delays-this-week-on-alabama-highway-304/

The connections between US 29, US 80, and AL 81 is a little uneven at the town square in Tuskegee. Usually, those just get straightened out, right?
There's points AL 81_N and AL 81_S on US80, but AL 81 just pierces the town square without the additional points. (US 29 only has the AL81_N point because of its concurrency with US 80.)

US 278/AL 241 is a FP. I'll get to the other one when I get an opportunity...I'm on a plane lunchtime Wednesday so that's the focus of my time.

It is explained upthread why I did things the way I did and why I do not intend to change it.
